EPISODE #51 (June 26th, 2006)

UPDATE - We are now editing our one-year anniversary episode, which we will have live Tuesday (July 11th). Can't wait to start up another year of commandN!

Next weekend is a holiday weekend, so we'll be taking it off - but we will be back the following Monday (July 10th) with our 1-year anniversary episode. Also, big thanks to Libsyn and SMUnique for their hosting help. Enjoy the show (FYI - no blooper this week, but we do have a little CFH promo taped under the GG bridge!).

» CommandN from Peter's Web Development Blog
Just thought Id say that Ive started watching a new vodcast, CommandN.
Despite the rather Mac-centric sounding name (Command being a Macintosh-specific key on the keyboard), its actually fairly platform-independent from the few epi... [Read More]

A 17 minute long episode? Fantastic! CommandN is back to normal and I love it [although a little change every now and then is fine].

I did like the cheap Call For Help plug at the end of the episode with Leo. Even though you guys are 8 episodes behind. Still 99 cents is a bit too much. That's almost $400 for all the episodes, and I couldn't even keep them all on my hard drive as that'd be..160 gb of space, so more money for the extra hard drive. Oh well, maybe some day.

I'm downloading show rite now at 100-150 Kb/s which is oK
FYI - (maybe you guyz know about it) SwarmCast.net - its fast and free distribution software service which works like bittorrent. I dont know its safe or not but it makes downloading pretty fast(at high rate)
disclaimer - im new to this technology so i, at this moment, cant say about its cons

Great show! Just call it what it is....a Metrotechnical (more apps and gadgets to tweak until they've lost the *bling* luster of a new toy, which has now gone the way of the dog.

Maybe I do listen to Merlin too much, but the advice has helped me regain 50gb of hard space and 70% of my Palm t3. Now if I can locate some new software to remove my photos from Textamerica before they delete me.

Woe to Cat Schwartz-Bartkus & former TechTV/G4 TA users with 1000's of pics. I guess flickr's going to crash in a few months.

I always get accused of being in a rush in everthing I do too. From walking to working to everything else. Maybe I should check out the site and the book. Hey... maybe everyone's just moving too slow..?

Jeff... what's up with the "perty" flowers bud? :)

And your pronunciation of "CDWinder" cracked me up! I thought was back in Texas again... back dere yander. ;)

I used StatCounter in the past and I agree it's great and FREE, but ever since Google Analytics, nothing comes close... and it's FREE.

Nice ending with the ad for Call For Help and Leo, you're right. I miss Call For Help! I can't believe it's off in the US. What's up with that? 99 cents... I can swing that!

Amber... Leo... how many shows and gigs are you two each involved in... sheesh! And I thought I was busy! ;)

Still not sure how to pronounce CDWinder, though. Should it be like CDFinder (and so "wind" like "winding your watch") or should the "Win" of "Winder" be like "Windows" (and so "wind" like "the snow lets you actually see the wind, dude"). No idea :-) .

Well, the XVID still isn't working on my Archos, but then I realized that I have a video conversion program that converts to DIVX. I can report that the file I'm able to watch on the Archos is 29.97 fps, so that's definitely not the issue (though the greater frame rate does make things look smoother).

I was beginning to wonder why you guys were getting a weekend off, and then it dawned on me that this Saturday is CANADA DAY! So, Happy Canada Day to our wonderful neighbors to the north, from a Yank who'll be celebrating the Fourth next Tuesday. :)

I LOVE the show. Just a quick feedback I really wish you'd cover more Canadian tech news, I loved the UofT program but like talk about PVR's for Canada, Cell service, etc. Thanks keep up the great work!

Heya guys. I'm a long-time fan of CommandN. However, I've run into a little problem as of late... WITHDRAWL! For some reason I cannot download any of the shows. I'm a faithfull watcher, so it hasn't been too long... but my "right-click finger" is begining to twitch. Ever since ep 48 was released, I get an axx denied error. See, I download them and watch them "on the go" as I don't have full inet axx at work, and it's good to have something distracting for my breaks at work, and other places. (I call it my "Mac & Cheezy Break" - you can figure out who's who.) Others seem to be getting it downloaded alright, but how? *twitch* *twitch*

One other note, I went to the commandn/bm and it was giving me the main yellow with blue banner dashboard, user/pass creation, and setting permissions section for the site. Path of: /home/command/public_html/bm/ . Isn't it supposed to be commandn and not just command? besides the fact that I don't believe I'm supposed to be seing that....LOL*twitch*lol
